A husband in Kenya hacked his wife’s hands off with a machete for failing to conceive after seven years of marriage – even though he was impotent.<\/p>\n

Jackline Mwende was brutally slashed by Stephen Ngila at her home in Masii, Machakos County after he told her ‘Today is your last day’.<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old is said to have flown into a rage because she had failed to conceive during their marriage – despite doctors saying he was the reason their inability to have children.<\/p>\n

Medics told him last year that his fertility problem could be rectified with treatment – but he failed to show up for appointments, Kenyans reports.<\/p>\n

After splitting for three months, he returned to their home and attacked her with a large machete – chopping off both of his wife’s hands.<\/p>\n

Mwende, 27, was also left with horrific injuries to her head. The case has sparked outrage in Kenya.<\/p>\n

Revealing her ordeal, Mwende told The Nation: ‘He moved out of our house three months ago and came back on Sunday (July 24) at around 8.30pm. When I opened the door, he said “today is your last day” and started slashing me with the panga.’<\/p>\n

She later called for Ngila to he jailed for life ‘for being heartless and wanting to kill me despite my love for him.’<\/p>\n

Ngila was arrested a day after the incident and remains in police\u00a0custody.<\/p>\n

Naitore Nyamu, from the African office of Equality Now, which promotes women’s rights, told MailOnline: ‘This is a particularly shocking case for Kenya, where we have been working for many years to end all forms of violence against women.<\/p>\n

‘We are glad that the police have made an arrest so quickly and hope that the law is now fully enforced. We can’t afford to let perpetrators act with impunity, which has sometimes been the case here in years gone by.<\/p>\n

‘The government needs to take a zero tolerance stance on protecting the rights of women and girls.<\/p>\n

‘It needs to ensure that Kenyan police are properly trained to deal with cases like this sensitively and effectively.<\/p>\n

‘We are doing better than elsewhere on ending some crimes such as female genital mutilation, but we need to work even harder to ensure that every single Kenyan woman and girl is protected from all forms of violence and discrimination and is able to live her life safely and without fear.’<\/p>\n
